Chapter 166: Mereles of Popping Beans
CSKA Sofia's players were a little stunned, after all, an abrupt goal left them unable to react at all, and even the manager who had not kept Notts County in mind on the sidelines had no time to respond.
After the restart, they did not speed up the tempo, after calming down they still have a kind of luck mentality, thinking that this is just a sneak attack by Notts County, they are careless, there is no surprise to concede the goal, so the opponent is still not worthy of their attention, as long as they play step by step, they will definitely be able to recover the score and then overtake, and finally another big win, everything is so natural.
But within a few minutes, another stick slapped at Notts County, and the already confused heads of the CSKA Sofia players were completely smashed and paralyzed.
This time it was Merreles who scored the goal, and he seemed to want to release the passion of his life in this game, and it was still a long-range shot from the same position, which once again caught CSKA Sofia off guard.
It was a goal that even Loew couldn't help but enjoy on the sidelines.
Although Meireles has offensive ability, he is definitely not a midfielder who is good at scoring, and after a season, scoring 4 or 5 goals is a very good contribution, but this game came with a brace.
How embarrassing are you to make the two strikers who start!
The home fans at the scene could no longer make any noise, they had never seen their own team so embarrassed at home, maybe a goal can be said to be a fluke of the opponent, and now it is not ten minutes before the start, they are two goals behind, it is not just a matter of luck.
Dazed, helpless, every CSKA Sofia fan is full of bitter emotions at this time, not only for the team's backwardness and loss, but also for thinking about Bulgarian football.
Is it that Bulgarian football has been far away from the mainstream European leagues for too long, and there is a huge disparity in strength?
Or is English football so strong?
Bulgaria's champion team meets a promoted horse from the second division of England, don't play on the field, should it be so exaggerated?
Before the game restarted again, the Notts County players laughed wildly and congratulated Meireles, this kid was already a blockbuster, and he scored twice in a few minutes, wearing underwear, right?
However, despite the smooth start, Notts County had no intention of letting their guard down.
It was their European debut, and while it was only the first round of the UEFA Cup, many of the big clubs didn't see a domestic cup game yet, but it was a historic moment for Notts County, so they wanted to play a perfect game.
In addition, the opponent has been ignoring himself, and it is not too good to be able to slap the opponent's face on the opponent's home field!
So after kick-off, Notts County actually showed an unrelenting attitude and came directly to a full-court rush.
This is not Loew's arrangement, although he emphasized the high pressing in the special period, but he didn't expect that the players who had played chicken blood actually played this game, and even the opponent's goalkeeper did not let go, and the kind of pressing edge made people dare not look directly.
CSKA Sofia made a mistake at the back under unreasonable pressing from Notts County, but a long boccia pass was intercepted by Sneijder halfway through, and then Sneijder immediately passed the ball to Iniesta, who had already rushed up from the wing.
Counter-attacking on the spot and grasping the details of the opponent's offensive and defensive transitions is the best and sharpest attack routine for Notts County.
Andres Iniesta slid past the opposition defender and got straight inside with his 45-degree kick, but his cross was of poor quality and was grabbed by the opposition defender for the first point and headed towards the outside of the box.
However, the Notts County attack did not end there, and everyone was glued to the second drop of the ball, which was at the top of the arc of the penalty area.
The fans in the stands shouted in unison, because the closest to the second drop of the ball was a figure in a black and white striped shirt.
A CSKA Sofia midfielder was not far away, and he took a few quick steps in an instant, leaning on the opponent behind him before the ball hit the ground, not giving the opponent a chance to turn and shoot, and if he let the opponent get up in this position, the chances of conceding the ball were too great.
Under the gaze of all the eyes of the audience, the Notts County player turned his back to the goal, **** stopped the ball, jumped high again, and then backflipped to form himself in the air to lie on his back, his right foot suddenly exerted, and the ball flew towards the goal like a cannonball.
The trajectory of the ball seems to have the effect of fire, but the trajectory of the ball is accompanied by the terrifying gaze and desperate eyes of the CSKA Sofia players.
Barb shot!
A brilliant barb World Cup broke through the CSKA Sofia defence and goalkeeper.
Once again, the stadium fell into a terrifying silence, with all the home fans shattered by the god-like state of Notts County.
The Notts County player, who only realized that he had scored a goal from the ground, was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and roared wildly, using the speed of the sprint to stage the speed and fury on the pitch, in order to vent his excitement beyond his own excitement.
Mereles!
Mereles again!
The Portuguese midfielder really entered the state of supergod today, and he actually completed the goal of the whole season in one game.
The players of Notts County were also impressed by Meireles' state, and rushed over excitedly to grab the Portuguese midfielder and play a game of aerial throwing, and even came to an aerial relay, making Meireles feel as if he had been split by five horses.
But even so, it couldn't hide the sunflower-like smile on Mereles's face.
Loew on the sidelines was a little dumbfounded, with an incredible expression on his face, as if he had seen an alien appear in front of him.
Who would have thought that it was not the main striker Villa who contributed to the team, nor the full-fronters Iniesta and Kuyt, who have strong scoring ability, not Sneijder, who has long-range shooting skills, but Meireles, who is doing his own work in a low-key manner in the team, and there are three of them!
Ya is definitely taking drugs today!
This is the unanimous thinking of all Notts Shires!
Come on, let's take a strong look at aliens, Superman, Spider-Man, and Batman Anyway, today's Mereles is definitely not an ordinary earthling.
3:0

It took them ten minutes to announce to the whole of European football that Notts County was coming! (To be continued.) )
